Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Lol, he said he was trying to get them lined up or make a call and ended up in the wrong spot...said it definitely wasn't in his Top 10 but at least he made up for it by scrambling for the first down I showed my dedication to the Bills by not watching a stream, since that worked out vs. Arizona (now have streak of 2 "no stream for me" = "win for Bills") When I saw that, I wondered if Taylor was OK mentally. Can anyone tell me what plays preceded this? Did it look as though he got his "bell rung"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone tell me what plays preceded this? Did it look as though he got his "bell rung"? No, he just stood in the wrong spot. Made a mistake. Doesnt seem to be anymore to it than that.

I might be forgetting a play or two, but it was on our first drive and if I remember right it was only the second play, the first being the big Shady run that you can see the end of the replay on the video.

HuSeYiN_NYC Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 (edited) I had way too many emotions on that play to worry about a horse collar. Watching it again doesn't look any better.

Greg F Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Not in the tackle box by a long shot. Looks like a Horse-Collar to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Sal said TT was still setting the offense and Wood snapped it early. I'm not buying that. TT pulled an Elway there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Brutal gaffe but a borderline horse collar too. Definitely could have been called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I'm not buying that. TT pulled an Elway there. Yup. Definitely meant to line up there. And unless the NFL completely changed the rule, a horse collar only applies if a player is taken down from behind by grabbing the back of the jersey. If how TT was tackled was considered a horse collar, you could say the same for Zach Brown's tackle on Edelman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg F Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 And unless the NFL completely changed the rule, a horse collar only applies if a player is taken down from behind by grabbing the back of the jersey. They did change the rule this year. No player shall grab the inside collar of the back or the side of the shoulder pads or jersey, or grab the jersey at the name plate or above, and pull the runner toward the ground. This does not apply to a runner who is in the tackle box or to a quarterback who is in the pocket. Note: It is not necessary for a player to pull the runner completely to the ground in order for the act to be illegal. If his knees are buckled by the action, it is a foul, even if the runner is not pulled completely to the ground. Nothing in the rule about being taken down from behind. TT was not in the tackle box or in the pocket. He was grabbed on the "jersey at the name plate". The only reason for not throwing the flag is it may be arguable that his knees were not 'buckled'.

Kelly the Dog Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 The issue was if the Bills offensive players were not aligned right as TT seems to be saying, and he had to get them in the right position before the snap, which would have caused the snafu. It's his fault either way, he has to line up right just like every other player does. Plus he's the QB. There is no real excuse. But if he had to direct the other players into position when they should have already been in position, that was the cause of the huge mistake by TT and wouldn't have happened if they lined up right. If he was just changing the play and was being responsible for getting everyone in the right spot, the onus is more on him, too. He made the mistake. Incredibly, he made up for it getting a first down after 2-28 and 3-19. What a cut he made to get the first down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Eric Wood told the whole inside story on this play during his weekly segment with Schopp and Bulldog yesterday, which I'm sure you can listen to at the WGR 550 website. It was all on Tyrod lining up in wrong spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
